SABIC Wins AICM’s Responsible Care? Chairman Award in China

SABIC was presented with the AICM Responsible Care? Chairman Award at a ceremony on June 19 in Shanghai, China in recognition of the company’s leadership, innovation and contribution to China’s chemical industry and the Chinese public, as well as its efforts in integrating the guiding principles of Responsible Care? throughout its operations. This is SABIC’s third consecutive award after earning the Responsible Care? Merit Awards in 2013 and 2015.
Sustainable development sits at the heart of China’s 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-2020) as the country seeks to move towards a greener and low-carbon development model and lifestyle. These goals make it imperative for corporations which are active in China to step up and do their part. SABIC, as a globally responsible company, has practices in place that supports China’s plan – something the Association of International Chemical Manufacturers (AICM) has validated.
“SABIC is proud to be a member of AICM’s voluntary Responsible Care? initiative,” said Li Lei, Vice President, North Asia. “Sustainability is a core element of SABIC’s 2025 vision. The Responsible Care? Chairman Award reaffirms our capabilities in achieving manufacturing excellence and offering innovative sustainability solutions while minimizing our impact on the environment. It also underscores our track record, both as an adopter and as an advocator of EHSS, and will certainly spur us to raise our efforts in Responsible Care? for the industry, community and within SABIC.”
The AICM Responsible Care? Chairman Award is the highest accolade for member organizations which demonstrate leadership in all aspects of Responsible Care?: environmental sustainability, health, safety and security (EHSS).
